Abstract

Provided are a multilayer thin-film structure and a phase shifting device using the same. The multilayer thin-film structure includes at least one crystallization preventing layer and at least one dielectric layer that are alternately stacked. The at least one crystallization preventing layer includes an amorphous material, and a thickness of the at least one crystallization preventing layer is less than a thickness of the at least one dielectric layer.
